The Great Suspender Chrome ext has been flagged
All of sudden the The Great Suspender extension has been flagged by Google as having malware? Does anyone know if this is true?

- atombum 6y agoSee previous discussion here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2562201 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2562201 We had everyone on this at work. Have since switched to the Great Discarder. Not quite as good, but still gets the job done.

- cm2012 6y agoI used to work at a company with very intense security restrictions. Layers of passwords and 2 factor auth to do anything, secured company laptop needed to access even email, etc etc. But they still didn't restrict chrome extensions, which seemed odd to me.
